Book Description
Baptism by Toilet Water is Jim Winter's bittersweet memoir documenting the hardship his family endured while, ironically, Jim's grandparents, who exemplified Christian living, were right next door.'Our home life was the furthest thing from a Christian home, yet our grandparents were the spiritual paragons we so desperately needed. Unfortunately, as long as our father remained in the picture, there was little hope. Our grandparents' home served as a sanctuary, but we were still trapped. We could see paradise from our fence, but at best we could only visit from time to time.'Throughout their tumultuous childhood, the Winter children grappled with this stark contradiction of moral values between their father and grandparents, leading them to ultimately learn that good can come from bad. After high school, Jim leaves his home, believing the worst is behind him. Unfortunately, nothing could be further from the truth. As illness and death ravage the family, Jim becomes stricken with grief. Convinced God had forsaken him, Jim becomes tormented by guilt from his past. When it seems like all hope is lost, a series of remarkable events begins to unfold in what can only be described as divine intervention. Through Jim'sBaptism by Toilet Waterhe comes to realize that Jesus Christ is illuminating the way through it all.

""Are You In Christ"" The local church is not what it used to be originally given to us by the Apostolic people in bible days.The original church pattern we see in Acts 2:46 was founded by the Apostles and Prophets, and its time we got back to that. So this book is designed to be giving you the right mind set for God to speak to us like He did with the original pattern.This book was started as an introduction to an idea of a real mature video bible school for the leadership change that is taking place in the body of Christ to-day. International Christian Community-Video Bible School will be given birth from some of the teaching from this book.So its important that we get the support we need to launch this brand new concept of teaching through the participation of the whole body of Christ without a denominational strongholds looking at the guidelines through the biblical Word of God.
